Hi
It is possible with PHP but not as an out-of-the-box solution. You would need a library such as FFmpeg.

I think that the person interviewing you was attempting to either get you to try and bluff your way through it or hasn't understood the purpose of PHP as Mandes said.

anbody done it using FFmpeg ?

i've never heard of FFmpeg being used as a "capture" tool, it converts one audio/video format to another. I don't see how you could expect php to capture audio/video like one would do in Adobe Premiere for example, given php's nature.
